New West Ham signing Nayef Aguerd will wear the No.27 jersey, the club have announced. The Moroccan international originally wanted the No.6 shirt that he wore at his previous club Rennes, but that number was unavailable at West Ham (retired in honour of Bobby Moore), and he therefore chose the No.27 shirt. Dimitri Payet also wore that jersey during his successful stint with the Hammers.

Patrice Evra
Marko Arnautovic (wore it against MUFC at the beginning of the 17/18 season)
